Jeffrey Cohan in Johann Sebastian Bach’s cantata
Ich habe genug and other works
The church cantata Ich habe genug ("I am
content"), BWV 82 was composed in Leipzig in 1727
for the feast Purification of Mary and is one of
the most often performed and recorded of Bach's
sacred cantatas. In this cantata, based on the
Song of Simeon, Bach projects a feeling of serene
contentedness with life and an expression of the
experience of body and soul coming to rest and in
complete harmony beyond anything that words alone
can convey.
